ASP1400 Product Summary
The ASP1400 differential pressure sensor is especially
suited for measurements of ultra low pressure
differences of gases and true mass flow measurements
in bypass solutions.
The micro-machined silicon sensor element of the
ASP1400 enables extremely long term stable and offset
free measurements. Its leading performance is based on
SENSIRION鈥檚 unsurpassed CMOSens鈩?technology.
With CMOSens鈩? the on-chip sensor element forms an
integrated whole with the amplification and A/D converter
circuit. This results in superior resolution, fast response
time and large dynamic range at lowest power
consumption.
All measurement data is fully calibrated and temperature
compensated by means of an internal micro controller.
Mounted in rugged, chemically inert PBT housing the
ASP1400 is suitable for a wide range of applications.
Such include for example monitoring of clean room
conditions, intrusion detection and almost unlimited
bypass solutions in process control, building control as
well as medical applications.
Bypass solutions allow a true mass flow measurement.
The sensor housing provides two inlets for measuring
the differential pressure and withstands overpressures of
2 bar (29 psi).
The ASP1400 requires a supply voltage of 7鈥?8Vdc
and provides an RS-232 and SPI compliant electrical
interface.
